Upcoming WordCamps
We’ve said it before, and we’ll probably say it again: attending a WordCamp is one of the most enjoyable ways to meet other WordPress users and learn new tricks that you can use on your site. There are a handful of WordCamps coming up in the next few months all over the world, including Atlanta, Boston, Toronto, Indonesia, Ireland, Greece, and Japan. For more information about these specific events, you can check out the post at WordPress.org or go to the WordCamp hub. Happiness Engineers from WordPress.com and other Automattic employees are often at WordCamps, so maybe we’ll see you there!

Hi I’m a newbie to Blogland (1st post 1-2-10) and live in Sayulita, Mexico. As I can’t get to the other WordCamps, I’d like to suggest this area (Puerto Vallarta/Sayulita/San Pancho) as a potential future site-perfect for a long weekend!
January 5th, 2010 at 1:38 am
Sounds interesting!
January 5th, 2010 at 1:49 am
Hi Jane! Do you anticipate scheduling any WordCamps in N. California / Bay Area / Sacramento?
Please advise. Have a Great New Year!
January 5th, 2010 at 1:53 am
I love WordPress. You guys rock! Thank you for the great job and a Happy New Year. And thanks for the snowflakes, we love them.
January 5th, 2010 at 2:00 am
come to Jamaica
January 5th, 2010 at 2:01 am
That would be fun!
January 5th, 2010 at 2:15 am
I am waiting for the next New Delhi meet!
January 5th, 2010 at 2:22 am
Please have one in the Midwest sometime this year. Indianapolis would be a wonderful location! The Colts winning the Super Bowl and a WorldCamp in Indy would make my year!
January 5th, 2010 at 2:48 am
Thanks for the info.
January 5th, 2010 at 3:15 am
when is the next Wordcamp Buenos Aires??
January 5th, 2010 at 3:17 am
Hey you got one in my city!
January 5th, 2010 at 3:28 am
Me? LOL! Not likely!
January 5th, 2010 at 4:04 am
What about in malaysia?
January 5th, 2010 at 4:48 am
when are you coming to NYC?
January 5th, 2010 at 6:18 am
I’ll be traveling to Atlanta in the spring, so it would be nice if my trip coincided with WordCamp. Sounds like this would be very beneficial and a lot of fun. Thanks.
January 5th, 2010 at 6:49 am
Cool… maybe I’ll be able to go to WordCamp Boston! Do you have to be a certain age to go to it?
January 5th, 2010 at 10:06 am
When one wordcamp in Madrid?
i have my jet bad in garage.
January 5th, 2010 at 12:09 pm
Well the WordCamp sounds great however nothing near the Seattle area? Being a beginner at all this, is there a program that steps you through setting up your blog, how to manipulate pictures, etc.?
Currently I have been following timethief and find it helpful however, it is all still very overwhelming. Should I just continue on and be patient?
January 6th, 2010 at 2:41 pm
There are tutorials at http://en.support.wordpress.com/ and WordPress.com-related videos at http://wordpress.tv/flavor/wordpresscom/ to help you.
January 5th, 2010 at 1:39 pm
Good opportunity ..
January 5th, 2010 at 2:31 pm
sounds great… but unfortunately.. India is not there on the list !!!
January 5th, 2010 at 3:17 pm
Though they sound like fun, why not hold one of these in a warm climate? Like Florida? =)
I am going to try to make one of these Camps in the future! Thank you for the heads up!
January 5th, 2010 at 3:52 pm
Just registered for WordCamp Boston as a small business owner. Really excited about attending!
January 5th, 2010 at 6:30 pm
Hi, Nice to be here…learning how to use…
January 5th, 2010 at 8:05 pm
Wow – Ireland and Greece is at least the continent
January 5th, 2010 at 11:22 pm
This is my first time of hearing of this, so I’ll have to have my team check it out some of my team members need some blogging tips badly.

That looks cool…
January 6th, 2010 at 4:42 am
oh yes thanks muharrikdaie for the q’s.
I just wanna ask the same too
January 6th, 2010 at 5:17 am
I know I’m coming from far left field and you would rather go visit Lucifer’s home for R&R instead of coming to my city, but here goes…
I nominate a WordCamp for DETROIT!
True we’re the US top five murder capital and there is a lot of crime and we’re broke, losing our homes, and no one has a job, plus the literacy and high school drop out rate is the lowest in the country…
…but look at the potential and the bright side…
Give me a moment as I come up with the advantages…. this might take a moment…
Still I nominate Motown! Detroit. The Motor City!
Come on!!!!
(PS, plus you can have two WordCamps at one time since there’s easy inter-travel to Canada like five minutes away. Two for the Price of one. How many WordCamps can possible boast that?)
Just a suggestion…hint …HINT… HINTTTTT!
January 6th, 2010 at 5:56 am
When you guys will be in India?
January 6th, 2010 at 10:14 am
Wordcamp bonne initiative-!
January 6th, 2010 at 11:03 am
Somewhere in the East of England or even London / Birmingham / Cambridge would be nice – heck, I’d even take some time off work to attend.
January 6th, 2010 at 11:07 am
No camps Down Under I see – I shall camp on the beach myself, and take a heap of photos – which I shall then put up here, and you can all see what you’ve missed lol
January 6th, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Welcome to Indonesia WordCamps
January 6th, 2010 at 1:15 pm
Hi. Date when camp is held in SW Florida (Ft. Myers, Naples area)?
January 6th, 2010 at 7:02 pm
Anything in Alaska?
January 6th, 2010 at 7:29 pm
I wasn’t able to attend the recent WordCamp in NYC. Any plans to come back and do it again? I’d love to be able to attend.
January 6th, 2010 at 11:26 pm
Lástima que nada esté cerca de Argentina!
January 6th, 2010 at 11:48 pm
What about coming to Melbourne, Australia? Lovely weather here right now!
January 7th, 2010 at 12:21 am

January 7th, 2010 at 2:08 am

January 7th, 2010 at 4:27 am

January 7th, 2010 at 5:15 am

January 7th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Huh. Wordcamp Boston is already sold out. Bummer.
January 8th, 2010 at 7:50 am
Hello! Happy 2010 everybody. Kenya is part of the World too great idea. New guy in the list
January 8th, 2010 at 9:03 pm
How much time could be going from CR to Boston by bus??
too far away
January 8th, 2010 at 11:49 pm
I went to camp years ago. They made us get on stage with bags over our heads, having painted our stomachs with mouths, so we could “lip-sync” a popular song of the day. It was tortuous.
January 9th, 2010 at 3:30 am
What is WordCamp?
January 9th, 2010 at 8:39 am
>Atlanta, Boston, Toronto, Indonesia, Ireland, Greece, and Japan
what about cape town south afrika?!
summer here 30C – whoops – sorry northern hemisphere bloggers!
arctic conditions with you [global warming connected causes?]
January 10th, 2010 at 3:54 am
On behalf of all the piglets at the best virtual pub online, the Pig’s Arms (Window Dresser’s Arms, Pig and Whistle) may I humbly request a WordCamp in Australia? Preferably South Australia as I live in Adelaide…
January 10th, 2010 at 7:06 am
You guys do know that Toronto isn’t the only city inhabited by human beings in Canada right? Maybe Edmonton or Saskatoon or Vancouver could have a WordCamp. Toronto isn’t that close.
January 10th, 2010 at 8:35 pm
The Midwest needs one of these. How about Minneapolis-St. Paul?
January 10th, 2010 at 10:28 pm
When will be the next one in the UK and when are you gonna hold one in Second Life : )
January 10th, 2010 at 10:52 pm
Wow! Very cool! If you can, can you schedule them in an also-popular area: Miami/Orlando/Tampa? Thanks!
January 11th, 2010 at 12:02 pm
Do you guys come to India ?
January 12th, 2010 at 12:32 am
Welcome to Indonesia..
One of the largest user for wordpress..
January 12th, 2010 at 5:37 am
I’m waiting for Wordcamp Indonesia, n..
I’ll be there…
January 12th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
Exciting… I am hoping to get to Wordcamp San Francisco, Vancouver and Las Vegas this year.
To anybody who hasn’t been to a Wordcamp, you must go they’re tons of fun!
January 12th, 2010 at 4:33 pm
Holding one in Second Life would be cool Moco – might even be able to convince my partner to let us use her sim (mine is almost fully rented at the moment).
January 12th, 2010 at 8:51 pm
Come to San Fran!
January 13th, 2010 at 4:02 am
welcome to italy
paese di lasagne mafia e berlusconi
January 13th, 2010 at 6:40 am
How about Phlippines?
January 13th, 2010 at 10:28 am
Come to India, we can’t wait to have you here.
January 13th, 2010 at 3:24 pm
Thanks for this information and the links to tutorials. I’d be interesting in attending an event in south Florida.
January 13th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
Come to Singapore
January 13th, 2010 at 7:58 pm
oh that sounds nice. i wish i could attend… maybe next time there will be one in israel too
January 13th, 2010 at 8:00 pm
Does WordPress sort it’s users based on their geographic location? IF not, it should be done so that people at that location are intimated well in advance. Perhaps you could put up a form somewhere, for us to login and select our geo-location.
It’s been a great journey with WP, till now.And hopefully, in the future.
Thanks!
January 14th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
Sounds great! One of these days, I must attend one.
January 14th, 2010 at 7:57 pm
How about San Diego, CA
January 15th, 2010 at 7:21 am
WOW!!! S.F is just a short drive for me, I’m on this like a Rat on a Cheeto!!!
January 15th, 2010 at 2:04 pm
Suggested location: Portland, Oregon
BTW, you guys should trademark that expression “Happiness Engineers”. It is very neat and the WordPress platform shows evidence they are real! I can think of a couple of other platforms that could use a dose of “Happiness Engineers”.
January 15th, 2010 at 4:37 pm
How about mississippi u know!
January 15th, 2010 at 6:49 pm
Atlanta ….okay (nodding contemplatively)
January 16th, 2010 at 3:30 am
Is it in seattle??? I hope it is so i can get a Boyfriend.
January 16th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
You should throw one of those in the Middle East region – maybe UAE. It would be interesting to connect with others who share the same passion of expression through writing.
January 16th, 2010 at 5:17 pm
glad to hear you are coming to Greece!! Will see u here!
January 16th, 2010 at 10:58 pm
what about london? i see other places in the UK but not london!
January 17th, 2010 at 2:02 am
I second the motion for PORTLAND, OREGON! Though I live in Latvia I could possibly time a visit to my hometown, family and friends combined with word camp. Waaaaahhhhhooooo!!!!
January 17th, 2010 at 3:36 am
thx 4 your attention to Indonesia
January 17th, 2010 at 1:43 pm
Update on my previous comment – I just saw on Twitter reference to upcoming (2/20) WordCamp in Miami! Will investigate further… Thanks

January 18th, 2010 at 2:14 am
When to Argentina??
January 18th, 2010 at 3:22 am

(by the way, is there any possible that we could have one in CHINA )
January 18th, 2010 at 4:11 am

January 18th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
Maybe in Murcia, Spain ?
